"I think we just got sick of how a lot of what’s being made right now in rock music, and music in general, has just become so perfect and put to a grid."

“This record’s just coming out, so I don’t want to be obnoxious and start talking about the next one, but I’ve been thinking about it obsessively…"

“Sometimes you go out there and it’s like a horrible splash painting, like something out of The Bible."

“There are some songs that have literally 30 riffs in them and we’re like, ‘Oh my god, another riff? This song is still going? Jesus Christ, what are we doing here’. It’s been a challenge.”

"Over the years with band money we’ve kind of collected a bit of recording gear, so now we’ve got it to a point where we’re happy with the quality we can produce ourselves."

With such a drastic evolution, it’ll be interesting to see where their next record will venture, and whether or not they’ll be able to sustain their progress.

"Initially, I was picturing this band as quite indie, rock, acoustic and mellow; that was always my intention. Then we started jamming and the first things were hard riffs – so nothing like what I was expecting."

“What’s taken us so long to get back on this record? I have no idea.”
